The new Canada Strong Pass will grant Canadians free entry to all national parks, historic sites, and marine conservation areas managed by Parks Canada.
In addition to the free access, pass holders will also receive 25% off camping fees at national parks. The initiative is set to run until September 2 and stems from a Liberal campaign pledge aimed at boosting domestic tourism in light of the trade tensions with the United States.
Enjoy free entry to Parks Canada sites, discounts on VIA Rail, museums & more — no sign-up needed. Learn more: http://canada.ca

All of the work of Manitoba Theatre for Young People begins in our home at The Forks, on Treaty 1 Territory and in the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. We live and work on the lands of the Anishinaabeg, Anishininewuk, Dakota Oyate, Denesuline, Nehothowuk, Inuit and Métis peoples. We keep in our minds and in our hearts all the Indigenous children and their families who have been hurt because of broken promises and bad actions. We will travel together on a journey of reconciliation in all that we do.

It was built by early Winnipeg real estate developer Mark Fortune in 1882. Fortune served on city council from 1879-1881 and helped found the Winnipeg Real Estate Board in 1903. Tragically he lost his life aboard the Titanic in 1912. In 2016 Winnipeg businessman John Pollard purchased the Fortune Block and the next-door Macdonald Block and rehabilitated them for residential and commercial mixed-use.
